Every year the fashion world (actually just everyone) looks forward to the Met Gala. It takes place at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City, and is a night of full blown fashion! Designers coordinate with the hottest celebrities, and fashion icons, and create unique things for this night alone. Every year has a different theme, this years was Manus Machina, the fashion age of technology!

I was a little nervous to see what was to come for last nights red carpet, but I actually liked what I saw!

My top 3 favorite looks had to be Beyonce, Claire Danes and Zoe Saldana.

I have actually NEVER seen Beyonce look bad at the Met Ball, or anything for that matter. So I wasn’t too surprised when she arrived and like “Flawless”.

Claire Danes really stood out to me because her dress actually lit up!!! Come on, how amazing is that!?

I wasn’t impressed by it until I saw the lights. I thought it was gorgeous, obviously, but didn’t go with the theme. But I was wrong, it was perfect.

Lastly, Zoe. This train on her dress was absolutely beautiful, no matter where this was worn it would have caught everyone’s eye.

It is said, you should never wear white before Memorial day… it’s a fashion DON’T!

Well, I’m saying it’s a fashion DO!

Over the years this rule of no white before Memorial Day has completely shifted in the industry. It was always a don’t do. Then it became acceptable only for certain white jeans, now, I say it is perfectly fine!

I probably wouldn’t wear an all white dress, like this one from Wow Couture, in the middle of the Winter. But now that the sun has been coming out, and it’s feeling like Spring weather… I say wear that little white dress!

It’s Friday, and the weather is beautiful! It’s time to take advantage and bring out the dresses for a good girls night out, or date night, whichever you prefer! As Lana Del Rey would say…”I’ve got my red dress on tonight”.

The perfect transitional dress in my closet is this Red, open back lace 3/4 sleeve dress from Wow Couture. The sleeves are good if it gets a little cooler at night, and the color of the dress is perfect for Spring time.

I accessorized with my favorite (as you know), Henry London watch and a pair of nude open toe pumps! Now, if you get a bit chilly since the weather this time of year, no matter how beautiful, changes like crazy… throw on a simple leather jacket! You can also add a black or a nude clutch so the outfit will be consistent.

Is there such a thing as stylish rain gear? – I don’t know if there’s anyone that abhors rain boots more than I do, and I’ve been on a mission to find the most stylish, WARM and functional weatherproof fashion that wouldn’t scare my colleagues away. Here’s my break down of which ones to go for this season!

The best part about raingear – getting a chance to showcase what you’re wearing underneath! The Transparent trend is huge for spring and who better to showcase it on than kids?! Pair this jacket with a loud, colorful boot. The thing about rain boots – better to invest in a good pair that will withstand the weather!

Comfort is key on the weekends and it’s best to keep it simple. I love this hooded asymmetrical rain zip jacket from Earthy Chic! It has a loose fit with double front pockets and hood drawstrings. Pair this with stylish faux riding boots to round out the look. These boots feature a PVC fabric upper in a two tone design and round closed toe.

A lot of people see rain and white jeans and think “No way, Jose!”, but with Old Navy’s new Stay-White denim technology, have no fear about getting wet. The jeans repel stains & spills so they stay white, no matter how messy the day gets.. Soft, medium-weight denim with tonal topstitching and added stretch.

As if it couldn’t get any easier – Jack Threads has a water-resistant, packable rain jacket that transforms into a convenient belted pouch. For the adventurer- Throw it in your suitcase, keep it handy in your car or desk or sling it around your waist when the sun comes out.
